He did not feel any anger towards his adoptive father Qin Dashu. After all, all the grudges between him and his adoptive father disappeared with the death of the young Qin Huai.
She took out the small bag Qin Dashu had given her from her pocket, opened it and saw two dollars inside, both of which were one-cent and two-cent bills. They seemed to still carry the warmth of his body. She felt a little warm in her heart, but immediately remembered that he had the evil intention of killing someone. She had mixed feelings in her heart and didn't know what to feel.
Humans are truly the most complex creatures in the world, although his target is the young Qin Huai, not his current self.
Qinjiazhuang now eats from a big pot. The commune has long since taken away the pots from each family to make steel. Qin Huai and his siblings have no one to support them, so they are naturally the lowest class when eating in the village canteen.
People of status in the village can get some special treatment, and they eat the worst food.
Thinking of the lack of food at home and the frail bodies of his two younger sisters, Qin Huai turned back to the bun shop he had just been to, spent 15 cents to buy three meat buns, and then slowly moved back.
Before it gets completely dark, there are no pedestrians on the road. People in this era don't have a nightlife and go to bed when it gets dark to save food.
Walking alone on the road, he thought of the woman Qin Man from the daytime. Fortunately, it was already a new society, and no matter how dissatisfied the villagers were, they could only force his family to pay money, but they would not kill people.
We must find out whether she is Zuo Xiaoqing or not.
Maybe because he had eaten a bun, his legs and feet had some strength left, so he arrived at the village entrance. After a long time, he saw two shadows standing on the main road at the entrance of the village. When they saw him from afar, they ran over and called him brother.
It was two sisters, two girls who surrounded him and cared about his health.
In his previous life, he had worked hard alone in a big city and had always been single. Even when he returned home from a luxurious place, it was empty. Now that someone was waiting for him to come home, he felt a strange warmth in his heart. He hurriedly took out some buns from his arms and said, "Two each, eat."
The girl was older and knew how to care for others. She asked, "Brother, have you eaten?"
"I ate in the city."
The bun was squeezed out of shape in Qin Xiaomi's arms, and she started eating it in big mouthfuls. The girl took a bite and said, "It's delicious. It's still hot. I had it two years ago."
Two years ago, a bun...
Qin Xiaomi must have been starving. She ate her own food in two or three bites, then looked eagerly at the one in the girl's hand. The girl was very sensible. As expected, she handed the remaining one to her and said, "Eat slowly, don't choke."
Qin Xiaomi said, "Such delicious buns, I'd rather choke to death."
The girl then asked about the tuition fees and asked, "Brother, you got the money so quickly, did you go to the city to find them?" She no longer even called her parents.
"That's what they should pay for." He patted his pocket, and the girl breathed a sigh of relief. Qin Xiaomi said, "If you don't get it, then don't study. It's no big deal." Qin Huai patted her shoulder gently and said, "What nonsense."
The three brothers and sisters then slowly walked home.
After seeing the family's situation clearly, Qin Huai felt even more sad. It turned out that a family could be so poor.
To describe Qin Huai's home as bare is already a compliment to them. Most of the west wall has collapsed. Seeing this wall, he sighed. Although his legs and feet are not good, after all, there are two grown-up girls in the family, so he should at least repair it. However, his predecessor, who was already seventeen years old, had never thought about this problem.
The noodle jar was empty, and there was no oil, salt, sauce, or vinegar on the stove in the thatched shed. The earthenware jar was covered with iron scars, which were used as pots. There was no ironware in the house at all.
The bed that the maid and Qin Xiaomi slept on in the inner room was not really a bed. It was a wooden board placed on a few stones, with straw on top and a bunch of torn cotton wool on top of the straw.
Thinking of the two little girls sleeping on it every day, Qin Huai wanted to slap himself hard.
People say that there must be something hateful about pitiful people. In such a difficult period, it is not surprising that a seventeen-year-old who is still unable to shoulder the burden of life is looked down upon.
Life was so difficult that he had to find a way to change it. People usually say that people are poor and have no food to eat. But they didn't even have a meal.
But what should I do?
Yatou and Qin Xiaomi are both old, and the weather is getting cold. The most urgent thing is to repair the broken house first, and then think about making money to support the family.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the maid coming over with half a basin of water. There was something dark in it and he didn't know what was boiling. He didn't dare to ask more, for fear that saying too much would arouse his sister's suspicion.
The girl skillfully brought a tripod, placed the basin of water in the middle, and then placed Qin Huai's legs on the wooden frame to steam. Then she said with certainty: "Brother, your legs will definitely be cured this time."
Qin Huai pointed to the west wall and said, "Girl, I want to block this wall and replace the grass on the roof. Winter is coming soon, and it will be uninhabitable if it rains or snows."
"Brother, what if we can't do it?" The girl was stunned and asked in surprise.
"You have to learn it even if you don't know how to do it. But I can't do it alone very quickly. You two need to help us so that we can do it faster."
"Okay, brother, I'll do whatever you say."
Repairing the wall is not a difficult job, it is just hard and tiring.
It will probably take a few days to repair the collapsed wall. Everything else is easy, except that when removing the adobe bricks, hay is needed to increase the stickiness, but there is no hay at home.
However, hay is not a precious thing in rural areas, and there is a place where it can be found.
The brother and sister spent half a day digging out a large pile of soil, which was enough. Qin Huai then took a rope and walked towards the back of the village.
The production team's firewood pile was piled in the wheat field behind. Qin Huai was walking on the road with a rope in his hand. Many people asked him what he was doing. He told the villagers frankly that he was going to carry wheat straw to repair the wall.
